A Full Day of Cabin Life In The Snowy Woods of Alaska

Ойын-сауық

Today I talk/walk you through 24 hours of off-grid living in a cozy cabin, alone in the woods with my dog. I talk about my off-grid systems for heating, running water, electricity, cooking and more. I also find the time for some skiing, firewood chores, banjo pickin', and a wood fired sauna. Hope you enjoy!

    Hi I’m an Alaskan Athabaskan and very happy and proud to see what you have done with the skills of my people thank you so much for your amazing videos I have to say I have learned from you this time around. And am very grateful and happy to come across your videos and I will continue to watch so I can get back to my place back in the woods of my long lost life of where I grew up the city is just not for me and I knew that just came to help take care of my dad who has recently passed he is no longer suffering so not need for sadness cause death is a part of life and we all knew that. Now I am ready to go back to my life on my land back home after I save up to rebuild there Watching your videos really gives me so much hope and focus on where I need to be 😊❤. Keep up the good work. My village is Venetie ❤ & Arctic Village. ❤

    My father literally saved my life from beyond the grave. thanks dad. he knew. big tough man with a heart of gold and a brilliant mind. Greatest gift a man can give his children? I'm proud of my father. Of all men past and present, I wouldn't wish for anyone else. I love that his Dad follows his videos.

    I am very envious of your lifestyle. I think you are what nature intended man to be. When using a knife, curl your fingers and let the knife be guided by your knuckles. That way you won't cut your fingers off. I worked in a restaurant as a teenager and that is how I was taught. It has served me well.

I feel you have a good support network and if not it makes it even better. Its all so well thought out. Your family is great and supportive of your venture i believe. So keep it up, have a blast enjoying nature and being self sufficient. I say a prayer for you and yours. God Bless the dog and all you love. You have got it going on bro like you deserve.

If you use some dish washing gloves you can protect your hands and they will not dry out and crack. It took me years to figure this one out. All the best ...

    In regards to your 6 year old expired pancake mix.... many years ago, my brother and I were helping my 80ish parents move. I was working in the basement clearing things out. I came across canned pears in a Mason jar that were about 50 yrs old. I was ready to dispose of the pears, when my mom said... don't throw those pears out, I'll eat them. They looked fermented and really gross. I would have loved to see the look on her face eating the pears 😮

    Can I have two question? * A bit "indiscrete" one: You said in this video, that you have a wife. But the title on the thumbnail is "Alone in Alaska", etc., and I remeber that I saw her in a few previous video. How do you live together exactly, I just ask this out of pure curiosity, if the question is "harsh", just ignore it! And sorry for that. * Other than some KZread (or other) ad and/or promotion revenue, what do you make for a living? I mean, you just showed in this video, one of your regular days. But you used gasoline (for several purposes), got food you can't really harvest/catch there. You have to buy it somehow, and I really can't image how you can afford it, if all your days are like this. Maybe you have a remote daytime job, or you have great like crypto investments or how? Thank you a lot if you answer!
